While most of our customers come from north of Tampa to South of Ft Myers, we also get customers from Ocala, Gainesville, Sun City, Orlando, and The Villages. Some have even come from as far away as Miami / Fort Lauderdale / Boca Raton, Jacksonville and Tallahassee because they like the way we do business and treat our customers with respect – in our safe and secure modern store. They realize that integrity matters, and experience pays.
Hope to see you soon!
